Adult bonobos show no prosociality in both prosocial choice task and group service paradigm [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022

Changes in Reproductive Traits in Physalis philadelphica; An Unexpected Shift Toward Self-Incompatibility in a Domesticated Annual Fruit Crop

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Domestication is an evolutionary process with an impact on plant reproduction. Many domesticated plants are self-compatible (i.e., they lack mechanisms to reject their own pollen), but few domesticated plants are fully or partially self-incompatible.

Recent selection of candidate genes for mammal domestication in Europeans and language change in Europe: a hypothesis

Annals of Human Biology, 2021
Background and aim Human evolution resulted from changes in our biology, behaviour, and culture. One source of these changes has been hypothesised to be our self-domestication (that is, the development in humans of features commonly found in domesticated

Revisiting the case for ‘feral’ humans under the light of the human self-domestication hypothesis

Biolinguistics, 2021
Historically, some cases of ‘feral’ children have been reported. Contemporary descriptions generally preclude any insightful inference about the nature and the extent of the language deficits exhibited by these children, as well as the ultimate causes of

An etiology of human modernity

Anthropological Review, 2021
Following the refutation of the replacement hypothesis, which had proposed that a ‘superior’ hominin species arose in Africa and replaced all other humans existing at the time, the auto-domestication hypothesis remains the only viable explanation for the

In Bonobos Yawn Contagion Is Higher among Kin and Friends [PDF]

, 2012
In humans, the distribution of yawn contagion is shaped by social closeness with strongly bonded pairs showing higher levels of contagion than weakly bonded pairs.

Convergent? Minds? Some questions about mental evolution [PDF]

, 2017
In investigating convergent minds, we need to be sure that the things we are looking at are both minds and convergent. In determining whether a shared character state represents a convergence between two organisms, we must know the wider distribution and

Scleral appearance is not a correlate of domestication in mammals

Zoological Letters, 2023
Numerous hypotheses try to explain the unusual appearance of the human eye with its bright sclera and transparent conjunctiva and how it could have evolved from a dark-eyed phenotype, as is present in many non-human primates. Recently, it has been argued
